What a bunch of dumbasses in that company. What exactly happened in that meeting?

Moron #1 - We need a really cool new clothing symbol.
Moron #2 - What about Nazi Symbols and the Nazi Cross?
Moron #1 - Didn't they kill over 6 million ****, Gays and ******?
Moron #2 - Well, yeah, if you want to get specific
Moron #3 - That was so 40s.
Moron #1 - Okay, sounds good to me. That is the best we can do and nobody will be that upset.

Swastika or no swastika, there is no room for doubt with that clothing store that has propaganda films on the walls.

By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increase to lethal proficiency makes the master of the gun katas an adversary not to be taken lightly.

The ironic part, is that they must all be suicidal, seeing as the nazi campaign was to design a race of Aryans. Though Hitler himself wasn't one. Hmm, perhaps they're just insane.

well whatever, Im sure its just a case where their marketing department couldnt come up with anything new. kinda like all those variations of mountain dew.

I think its funny how theyre broadcasting nazi propaganda tapes in the store.

I hardly think the use of a swastika on a red flag with black stripes being held by the Nazi eagle means good luck.


GOOD LUCK!

You keep your racist opinions to yourself, if you haven't got anything decent to say, just don't post.

As for those who mentioned before, the swastika was taken from the Buddist "FALUN Law Wheel" theology, which is a sort of heavenly map of all the levels of this world and the next and the heavenly laws.
It is used mainly as a symbol of good luck, prosperity, and long life.

The original symbol is a mirror image of the one the nazi used, so if you flip the Nazi one, you will have the proper one.

Note, it's also flat, not tilted. The good-luck one that is.
